A Worthy Opponent Novels & Stories

They were Vikings not so long ago, after all. The last couple is a female warrior with strawberry blonde hair that has had my support from the beginning, impressed by the cunning use of speed against heavier opponents. The other, damn it, is Thane that has proved a formidable opponent, focused and lethal and the one with the swiftest wins in the small tournament.
